Lady Gaga delivered an emotional performance of the National Anthem ahead of Super Bowl 50, and the early consensus on social media is that she nailed it.

Gaga’s performance clocked in at 2 minutes, 21 seconds, just over Vegas’s 2:20 line, so prop bettors began the evening happy. Oscar-winning actress Marlee Matlin performed both the National Anthem and America the Beautiful in American Sign Language.
Gaga told the NFL in a statement that it had always been a dream of hers to sing the National Anthem at a major sports event.
“This is one of the highest honors of my career,” Gaga said. “I get a chance to sing for all the athletes who have been working so hard their whole life for this moment.”
Lady Gaga + the national anthem = amazing 💋💥🎉
